1084 CHAPTER 66: NQA CONFIGURATION COMMANDS
Parameter
times: Number of constant test failures.
Description
Use the test-failtimes command to set the number of constant test failures after
which the system will send the Trap information to the network management
system.
Use the undo test-failtimes command to restore the number of constant test
failures to the default value.
By default, the system sends the Trap information to the network management
system after one NQA test fails.
n
For the concept of test and probe, note the following content:
■ When probing, the system sends one packet every time. While the test process
is not always so.
■ One test may include many probes. The test succeeds as long as there is one
successful probe.
■ The current "probe failure times" will be reset to zero after a test is finished,
that is, the "times" is only valid for a single test and can not cross two tests for
constant statistics. If the probe succeeds, this statistic value is reset to zero too.
Related command: probe-failtimes.
Example
# Set that the system sends Trap information after 3 constant probe failures in an
NQA test.
